SSH OX

You can generate a key in Mac OS using the ssh-keygen command. You should run it in Terminal or iTerm and specify a type of encryption. You will also be asked for a file in which the key should be saved to and for a passphrase (password) for the key:

1

user@localhost:ssh–keygen–trsa

Generating public/privatersa key pair.

Enter file inwhich tosave the key(/Users/user/.ssh/id_rsa):id_rsa

Enter passphrase(empty forno passphrase):

Enter same passphrase again:

Your identification has been saved inid_rsa.

Your publickey has been saved inid_rsa.pub.

The key fingerprint is:

16:8e:e8:f2:1d:c9:b9:cf:43:9a:b3:3c:c1:1f:95:93user@localhost

This will create a private key written to ~/id_rsa and a public key written to ~/id_rsa.pub. The passphrase is used to protect your key. You will be asked for it when you load your key. You can load the key using the following command:

ssh-add ~/id_rsa

Paste the Client Key you created when prompted

ssh USER@HOST_NAME -pPORT

Your public key is saved to the id_rsa.pub;file and is the key you upload to your Triton Compute Service account. You can save this key to the clipboard by running this:
